“(He) has considerable experience in this area and has acted as a monitor on other significant cases,” the filing said.

The former chief of the criminal division in the Southern District of New York has managed complex investigations, prosecutions and security assessments for more than 3 decades.

Stamford, Connecticut-based SAC pleaded guilty to fraud charges late last year. It agreed to a $1.2 billion fine and promised to stop managing money for outsiders. (Reporting by Arnab Sen in Bangalore; Editing by Joyjeet Das)
